Foresight News reports that Celo Core Co. has announced the appointment of Dr. Markus Franke as Head of Global Stablecoin Business, responsible for advancing Celo's on-chain stablecoin strategy, including expanding partnerships, issuing new stable assets, and driving institutional adoption. Markus previously co-founded Mento Labs. Additionally, Celo will support the issuance of native USAT (a US dollar stablecoin issued by Anchorage Digital Bank and supported by Tether).
